A beautiful woman

The young man:

How beautiful are your feet in sandals,
    my princess![a]
Your round hips are as beautiful as jewels
    that a clever worker has made.[b]
Your navel is like a round bowl
    that is always full of good wine.[c]
Your stomach is like a round heap of wheat
    with lilies around the edge.
